You know, i'd probably be more active with this if I could get my darn car going again. I finished putting the new engine in it but I can't really drive it until I fix all the rust around the rear fenders. Well, I *could* drive it, but I have the body kit off and I don't want the rust to get worse.

I need a welder.

Many of which are buggy and/or ugly.

Many are but all aren't. And the majority are skinnable so looks are up to you.

I'm sure if you post a new thread about what you've tried and what your looking for someone could point you in the right direction.

I wouldn't say that Media Engine died off. I still use it daily, I just don't have the kind of time needed to actively develop it.

We still maintain the website hosting it and its skins, as well as provide user support for people with questions.

Its just been out of active development for awhile now.

The software is still at about 1000-1500 downloads per month according to analytics. The MediaEngine manual is also right up there with the same number of downloads. This has stayed constant since 2007 (I have the logs to prove it too ;) I consider that a software success story!

I had actually received the source for this and tried converting it to .net. While I did get it to finally compile after a lot of code changes I never actually got it to work :lol:

In any case I don't even have the car with the carputer in it anymore so I sort of shelved the idea although I still have the source somewhere around here...
